i'm excited for the opportunity for florida. i'm excited to be able to serve as the leader of the state. when i was in iraq, it didn't matter where our fellow service members came from, it didn't matter what they looked like. we all wore the same american flag patch on our uniform. we never thought about which of the folks back home we were fighting for. were we fighting for republicans, for just democrats, no, we stood for all americans. now, political campaigns are rough business and are often about highlighting our differences, and unfortunately, in this day and age, they too often spiral into outright demagoguery but governing is different. governing is about getting things done on behalf of the people of florida. keeping the economy going, improving our water quality and environment, promoting public safety and expanding educational opportunities. we need to build a florida that's cleaner, safer, stronger, and that will be my guiding light as governor. so you can count on me if you're a low income family, you're relying on

florida officials should do that. florida g.o.p. officials should follow the lead of their friends in arizona and count every vote no matter what the outcome. that's what democracy means. governor scott needs to recuse himself and needs to happen. now lastly, why are we seeing this campaign of falsehoods, outlandish claims of voter fraud , and the bullying of election officials? because republicans know that if this recount is conducted fairly and thoroughly, senator nelson has an excellent chance of being re-elected. we democrats are prepared to live with the verdict of the florida voters. but the republicans seem to be doing everything they can to stifle the voice of florida voters. if this is done fair and square, we believe senator nelson has an excellent chance, much greater than half chance of being re-elected. we will not have a rerun of 2000 when bullying and intimidation rules and created a rush to judgment so that to this day, many americans believe the election was unfairly decided. that cannot happen again. thank you. >>

(mom vo) it's easy to shrink into your own little world. especially these days. (dad) i think it's here. (mom vo) especially at this age. (big sister) where are we going? (mom vo) it's a big, beautiful world out there. (little sister) woah... (big sister) wow. see that? (mom vo) sometimes you just need a little help seeing it. (vo) presenting the all-new three-row s

senator from florida have the legitimacy from the people of florida. >> yeah. go to the source, the source in each state that knows if there's any sort of election malfeasance is secretary of state. some of them are republicans. some of them are democrats. florida secretary of state says department staff continues to observe the administration of the election of broward county. our staff has not seen any evidence of criminal activity in broward county at this time. so why the knee-jerk reaction right to voter fraud when republicans are winning, to john's point? >> well, only rick scott can answer that. and i think if you look at the numbers, there is no logical reason why they're reacting this way unless they know something that we don't know yet about what's gone on in broward county. but the reality is, the votes should be counted. these senators aren't seated until january. there's plenty of time. i think the real insidious thing, though, is what trump is doing. he is basically trying to undermine, at every turn -- it's not just florida. he weighed in on ari

they want to count votes mailed out from florida after the deadline and received in florida after theine from domestic sources. nelson's campaign's position is he should ignore florida's election laws. rick scott's position is we should follow elections. >> i do hear what you are saying here, and you do keep on using the word fraud, even though, i just want to state this, the secretary of state's office has said clearly they have seen no evidence of it and that judge we have heard from said he has seen no evidence of it yet either. so, brad, let me ask you this because i am an avid watcher of cuomo prime time. you were on last night. chris doesn't throw many softballs. he asked a huge softball where he asked you outright if after the recount somehow, and i know it is unlikely, but somehow bill nelson were to prevail, would rick scott, who was the governor right now certify that election, and you wouldn't say yes. you have had a night to think about it. is the answer yes? >> i'm also not going to answer is rick scott going to win the heisman trophy because he's not. but he is going to

we have a court in florida that has said there was a violation of the florida constitution.e have a court that has directed certain behavior out of the palm county election supervisors. we have courts that are saying follow the law that is not being followed. we know they are not following the law. they certainly weren't following the law. they were posting where they were supposed to be about the results of ballots coming in. it was the total number of ballots that have been cast. i think there's clear evidence the constitution was violated and a court in florida has said the same. >> it is true what you're saying about transparency. >> it's true. >> it's about meeting deadlines. florida's department of law enforcement said they haven't even received any allegations of criminal activity of fraud of stealing and the secretary of state's office said no evidence of criminal activity. so it seems to me like the rhetoric we are hearing -- >> what is a violation of the constitution? violating the constitution doesn't rise to the level of concern in florida? it absolutely rises. w

of the florida constitution. we have a court that has directed certain better behavior out of the palm county election supervisors. and we have courts that are saying follow the law that is not being followed. we know they're not following the law. they certainly weren't following the law. they weren't posting when they were supposed to be the results of ballots coming in. they weren't providing the canvas, the total number of ballots that had been cast and courts had agreed with us on those points. there's clear evidence that the constitution was violated and a court in florida has said the same. >> it's true what you're saying about transparency and it's true what you're saying -- >> that's exactly right. it's true. >> transparency and meeting deadlines, absolutely correct. florida's department of law enforcement said friday they haven't even received any allegations of criminal activity, of fraud, of stealing. and the secretary of state's office said there's no evidence of criminal activity. so it seems like

i thought we would come to florida, talk about florida issues, go home, follow the halloween show happeninge white house -- ( laughter ) -- but instead all of the news followed us here. everything. the mail bombs sent around the country allegedly came from florida. the woman involved in the attempted fake #metoo against robert mueller is from florida. and last night the presidential jack-o'-lantern himself came to florida to hold a campaign rally for local candidate ron desantis and rick scott. ( booing ) >> trevor: yeah, they don't like you either. ( laughter ) president trump held a rally yesterday on halloween and, from the looks at it, he decided to go as racism. >> andrew gillum wants to throw your border up to drug dealers, human traffickers, gang members and criminal aliens. oh, that's great, that's what we want. let those people pour right in, folks. let them come and joan you on your front lawn. ( booing ) >> trevor: did he just say let them come enjoy you on your front lawn? what does that even mean? no, because, now, i'm just picturing an immigrant who's come all the way to the u

take a look. >> every one talks about florida. florida is a purple state. we have close elections.s not a constitutional cri s crisis. it's a close race. we're going to have close races very close. vacation together and all that kind of stuff. >> we did not vacation. we lived on the same block on capitol hill. we shared a couple glasses and wine. i got a chance to talk to her. we aired our differences and i respect her very much. she's right. we're going to have close races in florida. therefore we should have policies that allow us to count every legal lawful ballot in the state of florida. >> dan, let's get right into what will happen tomorrow. are they going to meet the deadline and will there be a manual recount? >> that depends what county you're talk about. broward county said it will have everything done by 6:00 in the morning. that's what the supervisor of l elections says. all the republican and democratic lawyers that have been watching this at the scene down there, the over under for them is around 11:30. palm beach county say they may not be able to meet the deadline on
